Marathon Condo
Overall, we liked the condo. There are some things you should know before renting this place.
We had four bedrooms for the four people in our family to have private space. it's decorated cutely. The air conditioning works and we needed it as it was hot. The microwave is broken and no one came to fix it when we alerted management.
The kitchen does not have salt and pepper or sugar packets or any spices or basics. This is unfortunate.
The dock is nice for renting a boat, but very far from the inlet so it is a 20 minute crawl to open water through the canal system which is SLOW. We did see two manatees near our dock which was a highlight.
The outdoor area is a bit deceptive from photos. The pool is small and looks larger from the photos. It is NOT heated and the owner charges $200 extra per stay to heat the pool. This listing should not say heated pool.
The pool guy came and left the water running in the pool and never returned. He also left the hose unwound and threw all our pool floaties and toys out of the pool and into the snake grass.
The landscape is a bit of a mess and no one cut the grass or did anything while we were there. The grass was long enough that we avoided walking on it for fear of stepping on a snake or something down in the tangle. There is also old garbage around the outdoor area- like an old paddleboard without a fin, an old fishing rod case, an old kayak paddle (no paddle for the operable paddleboard though).
